abstract the purpose of this paper is to inform students and researchers of geomorphology from the situation of this science at present and in future, in iran, after the islamic revolution. to fulfill this purpose and to prouide full information about the situation of geomorphology in iran, various areas of this science are presented chronologically at the begining of the article. the findings ...

The existing literature on resulting reservoir geomorphology after hydraulic reservoir flushings has been systematically examined and evaluated. The emphasis has been put on cross-sectional and longitudinal variations in geomorphology due to flushing, but also the available literature on physical models and analytical modeling and a short section on depositional processes are included as well.

River restoration design requires the application of fluvial geomorphic concepts, and should be expected to apply the techniques concurrent with contemporary thinking and research. Through a brief review of the history of geomorphology over the past century, striking parallels between geomorphic research and river restoration practice become apparent. Namely, restoration design has been, to dat...

This paper provides a brief review of airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data for characterizing linear and planar geomorphic markers in tectonic geomorphology, including traces of active faults and surface deformation caused by earthquakes. Challenges and opportunities of LiDAR for the study of tectonic geomorphology and coseismic deformation are also discussed.

The Expert program is a part of larger project (Intelligent Tutoring System) and plays a role of an assistant and disputant with the system user. The authors of the article analyse algorithm of this module and discuss various Java technologies for preparation of application.

The fields of hydrology and fluvial geomorphology get more and more attention in the general public. The reason for this is changed climate patterns with increased frequencies of storms and river flooding and as a result changed geomorphology and living conditions for the inhabitants of the area. With the development of 3D geovisualization, hydrological and geomorphological processes can be bet...

Submitted to the Texas Water Development Board 2 PREFACE This report is submitted in fulfillment of contract no. 2005-483-564 between the Texas Water Development Board and Jonathan Phillips (doing business as Copperhead Road Geoscience). The report is presented in two more-or-less independent parts, reflecting the Scope of Work for the project. The first is a review and evaluation of geomorphic...

The supervision of people in special circumstances, having as their purpose detecting risk situations, is an area which has many applications. In this context we are interested, in this paper, the problems of driver drowsiness detection based on video analysis. We describe a new approach to detect reduced alertness automatically, to prevent the driver. Unlike many other works, our noninvasively...
